=== North or South on A7 highway === '''First option''' There is a petrol station right on the A7 close to Sagunt, where you can get on either side, depending which direction you want to go. Heading north is very easy, normally it doesn't take long to get a good lift, maybe even directly to France, heading south is more difficult. [[User:Jeensg|Jeensg]] experienced both ways to be good. [[User:jorenvanveen|jorenvanveen]] and his buddy Ruben had more difficulties, waiting 6 hours, before getting a small ride to Castellón. You have to take the bus or train to Sagunt and walk like 3.5 km south-south-west - ''Carrer de la Pau'', ''Cami de Gausa'', Calle ''Carrer de Lliria''. You should look it up on Google Maps or OpenStreetMaps to not get lost the first time you go there, because it is all through very tiny roads! Watch out that you don't get on the BP petrol station on the V-23.[http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=13/39.6664/-0.3090 osm]

;'''Second optionThere is a new-built gas station just a little north of the division of the motorway into {{Aes|A-7}} and {{Aes|AP-7}}, close to Torrent. Take metro line 1 direction Villanueva de Castellón and get off at Realon or Sant Ramon, which is about a 25 minute ride from centre. There you have to go direction Santa Apolonia, check before on [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Carretera+desconocida&daddr=Carretera+desconocida+to:Carretera+desconocida&hl=es&geocode=FWz2WAId-N74_w%3BFSA0WQIdUIX4_w%3BFVJSWQIdnvX4_w&mra=ls&dirflg=w&doflg=ptk&sll=39.397668,-0.475588&sspn=0.030444,0.055189&ie=UTF8&ll=39.398,-0.473785&spn=0.030444,0.055189&z=14 GoogleMaps] or [http://www.openstreetmap.org/ OpenStreetMaps], it's about a 4 km walk. [[User:Jeensg|Jeensg]] got a ride south directly to Granada, generally it's {{good}} regarding Spanish gas stations.'

;Third optionAnother way to travel North or maybe South (at least to Valencia) There is to take the train towards Castellon, and get off the train at Les Valls (note that not all trains stop at every a new-built petrol station.) There is just a Peaje section on little north of the division of the motorway into {{Aes|A-7}} and {{Aes|AP-7 around 250m from the station which can be accessed by walking over the bridge and down a dirt track}}, close to Torrent. This location works very well, Take metro line 1 direction Villanueva de Castellón and is well lit, meaning hitching get off at night is possible.

'''Third option''' Attention: In September 2021, AP-7 became free of charge and consequently the toll booths were removed. Cars don't need to slow down at this part of the highway where the toll booths used to be. This option is as viable as hitchhiking on the open highway. Another way to travel North or maybe South (at least to Valencia) is to take the train towards Castellon, and get off the train at ''Les Valls'' (note that few trains stop at this station.) There is a Peaje section on the AP-7 around 250m from the station which can be accessed by walking over the bridge and down a dirt track. This location works very well, and is well lit, meaning hitching at night is possible. A ride to Barcelona or France is easily possible from here, and guarantees a faster ride than taking the N340. The toll workers don't like seeing people hitchhiking on the motorway, of course, but you can compromise by waiting on the lawn next to the toll building. Quite a few truckers seem to stop for a pee there, and you can ask them for a lift to the next service station.  === North towards [[to Tarragona, Barcelona]] ===Going into direction [[Barcelona]] is possible at a driveDrive-up way to road V-21 in the north of the town. Drop out at Take the tram (''tranvía'') and get off the station ''Universidad Politécnica'' or bus (9, 18, 29 or 41) and drop off at "''Tarongers" '' avenue. Hitchhiker [[User:Buzz|Buzz]] waited Hitchike around bus stop or you can wait also right beside the metal university tower. There is plenty of traffic leaving town in direction heading north.

There is a [[roundabout]] just where the motorway starts in '''Valencia'''. This is a good place where cars can stop but it is at the edge of the city. Use a sign. You can get rides to Alicante, [[Granada]] and [[Sevilla]], either by the 'national motorway' {{Aes|A-7}} through the center or the toll-motorway along the coast {{Aes|AP-7}}.

The roundabout is located on the street ''Ave. de Ausiàs March'' in the south of the city, close to the river. It is a 25–35 minute walk from the main train station, and metro stations ''Joaquín Sorolla-Jesus'' or ''Xativa''. You can also take the buses number 6 ("''Ausias March-Na Rovella" '' stop, 5 min. walking away), 7 or 13 ("''Fonteta de Sant Lluis-Riu Sec" '' stop, 5 min. walking away), 8 or 64 ("''Boulevard Sud-Ausiàs March" '' stop). The best choice is to go there by bus number 8, taking it at "''Plaça de l'ajuntament"'', "''Plaça de la Reina" '' or Central train station on "''Nuevo hospital La Fe" '' direction. See [http://www.liftershalte.info/?lat=39.44588721196113&lng=-0.36842823028564453&zoom=16&trip=0&view=0 here] a map of the location of the roundabout in '''Valencia'''. If you find it hard to get a lift from the roundabout, there is a petrol station very close by where you can try to ask for a lift from the people tanking up there.

Go to Avinguda del Cid, and cross '''Fuel station Repsol''' Fuel station Repsol (46930 Quart de Poblet) on the bridge and actually the A3 starts A-3 motorway just out from here, but the problem is, that you cannot go there because there are fences everywheretown. You can chose to hitchhike before go there from the bridge where there is a bus stop or place for center with the cars to stop, metrobus 160 (C.C Bonaire direction) or try [http://maps.google.com/maps?near=39.472222,-0.431092 this place]. It is under the "bridge" that crosses above the A3, and there are two petrol stations, and lot of cars pass there 170 (though, a lot of them are going to ManisesEl Vedat direction). I've waited for a little more than an hour, but in Spain I usually count that you have to wait and stop at least an hourthe Cami Nou busstop.Go to El Ponte (The Bridge); they have a shower, WC,...
